It had to be the same night - Demi's wearing the same hat! Interesting how they filmed it with a different background than the DC Games red carpet event.

Yes,that would also be the night at World ShowPlace. Disney uses the Stars as much as possible for different promos,etc. during DCG because that is the ONLY time of the year when that MANY DC Stars are at one location at the SAME time,which is what makes DCG SO special!

In the end, Disney will do what they want to do and I think we will all appreciate it as we did this year. Free concert free admission free opportunities. Really you could not ask for more. I would like a fanfest no matter how they do it. If I can go I will if I cant I wont. I just hope they do it again next year and it is open to the public if it is here. My daughter had a blast.

DITTO! The reason I was not the least bit disappointed with DCG 2007 or DCG 2008 is because I went into each event with reasonable expectations based on the information Disney had given me.For example,Disney told me the view of the outfield would be obstructed this year,so I expected that situation and went as far as possible down the left field and right field lines where I could basically see as much as I could last year.The video feed to the big screens was operational by Tuesday which provided another avenue for viewing the outfield.I also knew what the participation of JB Nation would mean BEFORE I arrived and just made the best of that situation.The bottom line for me has always been that I am an invited spectator at a Television taping and have not been PROMISED autographs,time with Stars,etc,etc.IMHO,Disney has done a GREAT job of trying to explain what the tapings are like and to lower expectations to a reasonable level.DCG are FREE and expectations are not "pumped up" by Disney,so as long as they are open to the public,I will attend and be very happy that I am ALLOWED to attend! Again,JMHO!

What's that song - life's what you make it, so let's make it rock! LOL

I think some of the most fun we had was standing by the gate as the stars' cars were leaving. We were the only people there on Tuesday. On Thursday there and there was one other group with us. We had a blast waving to the stars as the passed - and to the crew! Every time a crew member came out we cheered for them like they were stars and they just lit up! In retrospect, I wish we had made a poster for the crew - they really enjoyed our cheering. They laughed and joked with us "no autographs, please".Actually, one crew member did sign my 9 year old's autograph book. If we could tell by what they were carrying we cheered for their specific jobs "Woohoo for the hair people!" "Woohoo for the concession people!" LOL


On Tuesday Jason Earles was the only one to stop and talk to us. He asked the kids if they had gotten his autograph inside (they had). On Thursday he high fived everyone - including my husband and me and even a few reluctant adults "come on man, you're standing there, you gotta show me some love!" LOL On Thursday a whole bunch of stars interacted with us - Alyson Stoner, Chelsea Staub, Martin Barlan from DC France. And, best of all - Joe Jonas "hey guys, how's it going?"

Actually. I think that we all would like to see a fan fest in the future. The only disagreement is the way it would be carried out. Let's just let Disney know that we had the most awesome time this year, but that it could be even more awesome, because if there was a fan feast, there is an unbelievable amount of fans who are interested in it.

Those of you who have an idea on how it could work, please send it in and give the rest of us the way you presented it to Disney. Then we could let Disney know what we are in favor of. Disney would surely pick the way that they felt would do Disney the best good - charity vs. income.

Thank you to all of you who have helped in trying to structure a fan fest in the future. I would love to see fan fest included in the activitites of the DC Games 2009!

Joe... don't assume that any comment was directed to you because it was not... if it were I would have PMed you or noted you.....

 

[MAndrascik]

Just to reiterate... We are planning on returning for the 2009 games if they are open to the public AND I would love to be involved in contacting Disney about a fan fest. We came out from AZ for the games and concert and would have loved the opportunity to meet the stars since we were only there for Thursday - which kind of stunk. SO - I'm in, please PM me with details as I am serious.
thanks!
Melissa
P.S. - thank you again to all on the boards. We wouldn't have had half the fun without all of the input from everyone here.

OK thanks, I thought you were upset with me....I was like after everything weve been through...

I couldn't have said it better.

I had no idea this was even happening we were in Disney and kept running the kids from the different shows. I was wondering what was going on and had to ask a cast member why they were all there . I am in the "all access" thing they were doing . I was outside of the TOT and ran I mean "RAN" into the twins from that show I think it is called Zack and Cody . I called my niece at home to tell her I was texting a picture to her moms phone of me and those boys . She was thrilled I was still trying to figure out who was who

Who else did you see in the Parks besides Cole and Dylan Sprouse?Last year I only ran into a few of the DC Stars once in a Park,but this year it seemed like they were EVERYWHERE! It was so much fun to see them out in the Parks having a good time at WDW just like we do.

WOW!Those are some great pictures!I love the one of Alyson hanging out the window!She is so NICE!GO CAITLYN!

 

[WEDWDW]

Did everyone who went to the DCG 2008 Concert get one of the free DCG 2008 posters?They are exactly the same as last year except last year's had reproductions of the Star's autographs in the area where the team name is listed this year.I think that it is so nice of Disney to produce these posters.

 

[WEDWDW]

Does anyone know where the first DCG,DCG 2006,was taped?I am assuming it was probably in California at a Studio Lot and closed to the public,but I have been unable to find the answer and am very curious.Thanks.

 

[Osjah&Landon'sMom]

It was in CA but not sure where... I'm guessing that the reason no autograph reproduction on this year's posters was because they had so many late registrants. I think it's nice too that they not only make them but that they give them away free at this free event.

now it's on Alyson Stoner's Official Myspace. Plus, it showed up on a teeny bopper celebrity blog - oceanup.typepad.com. I showed it to my 15 year old and she was looking at the pictures - there were a half dozen or so and when I scrolled down to the last one she said, cool - WHOA that's my hand she's slapping! LOL http://oceanup.typepad.com/oceanup/2008/05/alyson-stoner-a.html#more

I forgot the other really fun thing that happened on Thursday. My DD's friend's mom was there and we were discussing our plans for the concert. We weren't really paying attention to the cars passing us. We looked over, and who's staring at us but the Sprouse twins. They had stopped their car and were just looking at us, waiting for our reaction. We were oblivious and when we realized who it was, they were just leaving!

And, I am so kicking myself for not having my camera on continuous when the JoBros went by - my camera will take multiple pix in a row. If only hindsight were foresight...
